Inspiration

One of the things I forgot to mention about Mother Nature is my inspiration. I went to class with an idea in mind to do a doll with dimensional flowers. This was inspired by the work, most noteably her "Spring" quilt, by a talented friend, Allie Aller http://alliesinstitches.blogspot.com/ who embellished this quilt with the most extraordinary fiber flowers.

About Me

Since I retired from my "day" job in November, 2003, I have discovered Cloth Dolls. For as long as I can remember, I have been doing fiber arts from making clothes to all forms of embroidery, weaving, Knitting, etc (except tatting). I love to combine my love of anything tactile with creating dolls and other items. Check back to see my latest "stuff".
